Stanford’s Tara VanDerveer talks doughnuts, a car crash and her historic career

https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/ostle...600927.php

VanDerveer is an unabashed fan of local pro teams.

“How about the 49ers? I have to say, I love watching them, and I don’t even like football. I won’t ever watch a football game (other than the 49ers), I don’t like what college football has done to the other sports, so I’m not going to support big-time football. I can’t wait for USC to get beat next year. 

I'm with her on not liking what football does to other sports, nor what football does to so many who play it, both physically and psychologically. I used to enjoy going to games, but haven't at all in the past 10 plus years. Not that Stanford is at fault specifically, but I do see football in the Pac-12 generally as having a significant role in the demise of the conference.
